Last night we stayed in the water tower.We booked a room in the former water reservoir.The typical iron bottom of the water basin is still visible and touchable [watch your toes!]The hotel room has surprising details, like a staircase to the bathroom on the lower floor. Bathing in the tub, you can play with your yellow bath duck or looking out across the rivers of Dordrecht [through the charming round window].
We had a delicious dinner, slept wonderfully and enjoyed every minute! And yes, you can have that real 'weekend break feeling' in your domicile.

Today we had lunch at Radio Royaal in Eindhoven. (around the corner at Piet Hein Eek)What was once an old Philips energy house, is now a restaurant.Flooded with daylight and unpolished industrial design.We were pleasantly surprised by the purity.Here's a visual Radio Royaal report.

Yesterday was a huge success! Great audience, lovely summer weather, most charming fair participants and a relaxed atmosphere. Yvonne had everything perfectly organized (thanks again!). Everyone was having a great time and I hope it will become an annual Yvestown Fair tradition!

Years ago i made a handmade stool with legs of scrapwood and because it needed a finishing touch and i designed a woolen cover of crochet, the first wood & wool stool was born. That explains the name of my blog, i started in 2009. My blog is a diary about my life, my family, work, photography, travels, home, inspiration, new designs and the good things in life.
